I have to echo Alan's sentiments here, pretty much word for word. They're a
great live band as well; I've had the privilege of having them at IPO Los
Angeles, and Chuck Lindo did an excellent solo performance at one of the
recent IPO Presents shows.
For some reason I got it into my stupid head that Faking It was a 2002
release, but it indeed did come out this year, therefore giving it a
reasonable shot at my Top 10.
